            Bug ID: 131623
           Summary: (LibreOffice-Flatpak) LibreOffice doesn't start as
                    long as Xwayland is not running
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
Hi,

Here is a always reproductible one that I've found :

On my Debian Sid GNOME-Wayland system, I've started to try the experimental
function from GNOME 3.34 (I'm running GNOME 3.34.2) that allows Xwayland to
start on demand :
$ gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['autostart-xwayland']"
(see
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=GNOME-3.34-Mutter-X-On-Demand)

Here what I've noticed :
- As long as XWayland is not running, LibreOffice-Flatpak doesn't start.
- As soon as XWayland is running, LibreOffice-Flatpak can be started.
- Launch LibreOffice-Flatpak and then later start XWayland :
LibreOffice-Flatpak finally appears on my desktop.

By comparison, LibreOffice deb package from Debian repos can start without
Xwayland.

How I've tested :
I've checked that my system starts without Xwayland by checking my processes
To start Xwayland, I've launched an X11-application (like Thunderbird or
Firefox from Debian repos) which consequently starts Xwayland which
consequently allow LibreOffice to start.
I've checked that Xwayland was running by checking my processes.

I'm running LibreOffice-Flatpak up to date from FlatHub :
Version : 6.4.2.2
Build ID : 4e471d8c02c9c90f512f7f9ead8875b57fcb1ec3
Threads CPU : 4; OS : Linux 5.4; UI Render : par défaut; VCL: gtk3; 
Flatpak
Locale : fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); Langue IHM : fr-FR
Calc: threaded

Thanks

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure Xwayland on GNOME 3.34 to only start on demand
2. Launch LibreOffice
3.

Actual Results:
LibreOffice doesn't start

Expected Results:
LibreOffice should start


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Launch LibreOffice then start Xwayland and notice that LibreOffice finally
appears
